Winnipeg, (Nov. 27, 2016) – The leadership of James Beddome was unanimously reconfirmed by Green Party of Manitoba members yesterday at their annual general meeting. The election saw some new faces added to the party’s governing Council and the retirement of others.

“I’m very optimistic about the Green Party’s future in Manitoba,” Beddome said. “We came out of last year’s election stronger than at any time in our history and we have attracted many new faces to our party and our Council.”

“I’m honoured to have been chosen to be President of the Green Party of Manitoba,” said incoming president Dirk Hoeppner. “The new Council has a good blend of new and experienced members; I expect we will work hard and achieve great things.”
